Mods feel free to move to sale section at your discretion.

Due to some rather valuable camera equipment being stolen from me while in San Francisco the other weekend, I am regrettably selling my personal 1675.

The watch was sourced from one of the most reputable vintage dealers in the country (PM if you'd like to know), and has one of the best dial/bezel combinations I've ever seen (and I work with watches for a living). Watch has been fully serviced within the past year and is running within COSC standards!

Serial# is 5,3XX,XXX which dates it to 1977. Maxi dial shows light aging, consistent from hour markers to the hands (all original). Bracelet is original Rolex, but not original to the watch (580 end links, very little stretch as pictured). The bezel has aged to a very desaturated state (pics do no justice), and does have some light markings, with scuff at 3.

If you'd like to see other pics or have any other questions, feel free to PM me or email me at blake@hodinkee.com

I am giving TS first crack at this watch, and best price. If I get full asking price, I will include the leather HODINKEE strap seen in one of the pics ($149 value).

Asking $5,800

Raiff will buy this, then resell it in 30 days.

 

Raiff gets friends and family discount if he wants it, not sure if it's big enough for him though

 

sorry about the stolen equipment
sorry to see you parting with this
can't i talk you out of it?!

glws if not

 

Thanks boursachi, would love to keep it, but insurance is not covering my stolen equipment unfortunately.

Have a feeling my wife will try to talk me out of it this evening as well, as I had hopped to give this one to my son someday, but life's priorities must be met.

 

credit card insurance won't even cover it? bummer.

 

man such a beauty, actually a lil too nice as i am in the market for a pepsi dial to give my hulk a break... GLWS bud, sorry for the circumstances!

 

Didn't see this until now. I too am bummed that insurance won't cover the stolen equipment...

 

man i can't wait ... bit of a pickle with the shipment of the bezel insert

can't waaaait to have the pepsi

hope you changed your mind and kept it ctzn!!

 

I LOVE this watch. I have been wanting vintage pepsi forever. Good luck with the sale.

As for the stolen equipment though I feel so bad for you! Id die if someone stole my gear. That said though, I have insurace for all of my stuff now. I had a flash stolen out of my house and it was covered.
